After coming home from a vacation weird shit started going on with my pc, first the activate windows popped up (I've had this for 3 years) and WiFi wouldn't connect after pressing network reset in advanced network settings and restarting my pc it worked.

Then i noticed it was notably slower realized it switched to the 2.4ghz band so i went to switch my preferred band to 5ghz (I've always used 5ghz and only now its not working) but nothing would happen it was like there was no WiFi but it said it was connected and secured and it would connect and reconnect on it's own.

I've tried everything I SWEAR reinstalling both WiFi and Bluetooth drivers, changing settings of my network adapter, changing router settings all that jazz.

I think my only options right now are to purchase a new network adapter or wait for advice, if you have ANYTHING that i could use i will try it.

Thanks.
